I sigh and between lies, an
Options without a surge to choose
The world sees me below
I remain in your eyes, shallow
My ways and views I follow

Man appreciates delusions
Uphold with heart poisonous thorns
Forgetting the soil that made him
From it he evolve
And to it he shall desolve

Eyes opened with wonder
Brains working to ponder
A flash of time becomes yesterday
A second now becomes the past
The world moves very fast

My words above, enigmatic
Within a capsule, cryptic
Curiosity pervades the reader
Perhaps, life sends everyone a letter
Open, read and understand better.
